"This book provides an outstanding, empirically-based source for insights into couple interactions across 14 cultural groups. Readers will be stimulated to think about couple interactions in new ways and identify implications for understanding resilience and dyadic intervention in a cultural context. A "must read" for graduate students and established researchers, it will help move the field forward."- Steven R. H. Beach, University of Georgia, USA
"This seminal volume addresses a major void in the field by examining positive processes of support and couple adaptation – with a focus on commonalities and variations across culture. This tour de force brings together experts from around the world to produce a volume of interest to anyone engaged in clinical interventions or research with couples."- Douglas K. Snyder, Texas A&M University at College Station, USA

By setting the focus on culture and diversity, it provides the necessary impulses for important new developments. This book could have no better editorship. It will be extremely useful for anyone interested in the topic." - Dominik Schoebi, University of Fribourg, Switzerland
